PSG Told What to Do With Man City, Man Utd Target After Lucas Chevalier Agreement

At PSG, situations like this have often become a real headache. Having two top-level goalkeepers share the spotlight has rarely worked out, as seen in the past with Alphonse Areola and Keylor Navas, or later with Navas and Donnarumma.

Italian journalist Valentina Clemente, who knows PSG’s inner workings well, cautions that this setup always involves complications. As a result, it would be in the capital club’s best interest to sell Donnarumma if Chevalier does arrive. 

“Having two goalkeepers share the role—we know that doesn’t work in Paris,” Clemente told Foot Mercato (h/t Le10Sport). “They’re managing a tricky situation right now because if things shift suddenly, they could end up without a key goalkeeper.”

L’Équipe reported last weekend that PSG have stepped up their efforts to sign Chevalier, who is under contract through 2027. Talks over a five-year deal began, and Chevalier has already reached a broad agreement on personal terms.

PSG are now preparing to open formal negotiations with Lille, with only minor details left to sort out. Moreover, the expected fee is at least €40 million, a price PSG have already discussed internally and are ready to meet.
